CRIME

Student attacked in Village A JMU male student was the victim of an assault and attempted robbery on the field in front of Hanson Hall in the Village on Tuesday night.

The victim was walking across Hanson field at about : p.m. and was approached by two white men wearing white tennis shoes.

The attackers approached the victim and asked him for his money, but when he took out his wallet and tried to give it to them, they assaulted him, JMU police chief Lee Shifflett said.

It’s currently unknown whether the attackers are students.

The victim reported he was hit and kicked several times, but sustained no injuries.

“We interviewed other witnesses in the area and they weren’t able to provide any additional information,” Shifflett said.

JMU police were contacted about  minutes after the incident.

The police are actively searching for the attackers by checking gate cameras, talking to resident advisers and hall directors, checking with city and county police departments and looking into similar incidents at other local universities, according to Shifflett.

Anyone with information about this incident should contact JMU police at --.

Making the bid Hundreds of women received bids Tuesday to the 10 sororities on campus. The girls opened their bids inside Wilson Hall and ran outside to celebrate with their future sorority sisters. The Quad was swarming with new and old members chanting, cheering and singing signature songs in celebration. The event marked the end of rush and the beginning of the women’s new member education, which could last until the end of the fall semester.

Presidential candidate visits SGA

POLITICS

Rick Santorum fields questions about education, religion in politics About Rick Santorum

By CYNTHIA CLATTERBUCK contributing writer

During Tuesday night’s Student Government Association meeting, the group got a surprise visit from a  Republican presidential candidate.

Rick Santorum was on campus to keynote a private fundraising dinner for East Gate Ministries in Festival at : p.m., but took the time to answer questions from members of SGA. “A few of us were upstairs and we recognized him,” said Pat Watral, a senior international affairs major.

“We had a member accost him and his team to come down and be recognized at our meeting.”

Santorum was on campus to keynote a private fundraising dinner for East Gate Ministries in Festival at : p.m., but attended the SGA meeting when members saw him in Festival.

Jacob Mosser, a College of Visual Arts and Letters senator, asked Santorum about higher education and the federal government’s role in keeping it affordable.

Santorum said that education hasn’t been affordable since the federal government stepped in.

“Go back to the price of higher education before the federal government got involved,” Santorum said.

“We are subsidizing enormous subsidies to higher education.”

He said he felt college administrators contributed little to the actual education process.

“You have very little reason for administrators … to do anything to be good stewards of the money they get,” Santorum said. “They have an almost unlimited amount of money that comes from the federal government by virtue of loans and grants.”

Santorum said he thought higher education would shift online.

“One of the things that is ultimately going to happen … is that this isn’t going to continue,” Santorum said.

“You’ll have huge infrastructure that is very expensive to maintain, and people are more and more learning — not in buildings — but learning virtually.”

When asked whether he thought bringing up religion in a political campaign was wise, he alluded to James Madison’s beliefs.

“Madison saw the First Amendment and the freedom of religion in the First Amendment as what he called the ‘perfect remedy,’ ” Santorum said.

Santorum said faith and morality have a place in the public square, and rightly so.

OPINION Happy birthday, Darts & Pats

Take a look at Darts & Pats through the years.

 2012 Republican presidential candidate  Born May 10, 1958, in Winchester  Senator from Pennsylvania

from 1995 to 2007  House Representative for Pennsylvania’s 18th district from 1991 to 1995  Latest polling numbers for Santorum in the Republican primary: 3%, according to Rasmussen Reports Sept. 19 poll

“If you can convince the people that you’re right, and the people go along with it, no problem,” Santorum said.

Before the performance, vice president of SGA, senior Emily Douillard, explained the new ticket system for Purple Out this year.

“The reason we’re trying it a little different this year is because we can’t please everyone no matter how hard we try,” Douillard said. “Every year we have all those kids who wait in line and they don’t get a shirt.

So we’re trying to reduce that by guaranteeing these people shirts.”

Students will be able to get tickets for their shirts on Monday in Festival from A.M.-P.M. and on the Quad on Tuesday from A.M.-P.M. of that week.

When they go to get their shirts on the Quad on Sept.  at : p.m., students will need to present their JACard and ticket to get their shirt.

“SGA allocates the money for the shirts, and this year Homecoming did allocate money to us so we can get some more shirts, so it’s a combined effort,” Douillard said.

There will be four different color tickets for the four different sizes, and if students get tickets, they are guaranteed shirts. SGA is getting approximately , shirts to give out this year.

IN BRIEF NATION

Admissions focuses on out-of-state students

A recent survey conducted by the collegiate news website Inside HigherEd polled  admissions directors from public and private universities. It found that the top goal of admissions directors was recruiting students who could pay more. The strategy favored by most directors at most public fouryear institutions, according to the survey, was the recruitment of out-ofstate students. The interest in full-pay is so strong,  percent of four-year colleges reported that admitted fullpay students have lower test scores and grades than others. About two-thirds of admissions directors at community colleges, however, said serving students who don’t have a lot of money is a major goal.

Students can use the SyllabusSpeak website, which launched today, to compile all the key dates regarding assignments, projects and tests in one easyto-access source — their phones and laptops. “You can’t ignore a text,” said David Barron, the senior management major who developed the site.

By ANNE ELSEA The Breeze

There’s now an easy solution to organize all those due dates, exams and missed assignments that plague college students, thanks to senior David Barron.

Barron, a senior management major, developed the SyllabusSpeak website for students to enter relevant syllabus information like assignments and test dates. The site, which launches today, sends them reminder text messages and emails days or weeks before the due date.

“I kept forgetting assignments, and it was a pain to write down the assignments in a planner,” Barron said. “I started using Google Calendar but I wanted a text and an email, because you can’t ignore a text.”

For freshman Cloe Barnes, the service may help ease the transition from high school to college.

“I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to beg teachers for extensions because I forgot an assignment,” said Barnes, an athletic training major. “This website would definitely make my life easier.”

“I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had to beg teachers for extensions because I forgot an assignment.

This website would definitely make my life easier.”

Cloe Barnes

freshman athletic training major

The site asks for students’ names and universities and then gives them the option to receive either a reminder via text, email or both. On the next screen, users enter the course’s name and include information for three exam dates.

Barron has been developing the program for a few months.

From Sept.  to , he attended Startup Weekend, a -hour nonprofit entrepreneurship conference at the University of Delaware.

At the conference, students and entrepreneurs pitched ideas while teams of web designers and marketers worked on the best ones. Out of  candidates, SyllabusSpeak was one of the nine chosen.

Barron’s goal was to change how students keep track of their work.

“We want to reshape how learning happens in the classroom,” Barron said. “Like a virtual classroom connected to Blackboard where students could tell other students when they are done with assignments and collaborate with other students.”

Anthony Buono, an entrepreneur from Front Royal, and Steve Roettger, a marketing and user-interface expert and UD alumnus, worked with Barron to develop SyllabusSpeak.

Roettger said he chose to work on the site over other projects because he thinks it could help students avoid the downfalls of procrastination.

“I think as a society, procrastination is something everyone struggles with,” Roettger said.

“Sometimes it’s purposeful, and other times, it’s because life

happens.”

Junior Bethany Lentz said she would use the program to help her remember assignments.

“I actually have three tests and a paper due this week that I just realized a few days ago,” said Lentz, a health services administration major. “That would have been really helpful since I look at my phone more than my syllabus.”

But sophomore Ian Barb said he’s unsure about the effectiveness of SyllabusSpeak.

“When teachers announce in class when things are due, pulling out a planner is way easier than going online and typing something in,” said Barb, a biology major.

Barron hopes to develop a smartphone application in the near future.

“We are cur rently looking for financing,” Barron said. “When we find that, we will work on the app. Hopefully in the next few months.”

A man has been calling Harrisonburg residents with a scam, claiming the resident has won a large amount of money and a new vehicle before asking them to purchase a “Green Dot Card” or “Green Dot MoneyPak,” according to police spokeswoman Mary-Hope Vass. If the victim doesn’t buy the card, the caller threatens that the IRS will fine them. Vass described the caller as persistent and using a private telephone number. Vass said it was difficult to investigate because of jurisdictional boundaries and because many scammers often call from other countries.

JUDICIAL POLICIES

‘Green light’ for free speech JMU receives high speech rating after Judicial’s code changes — but some say it doesn’t mean much

By ZACHARY MEHAN contributing writer

For students, a recent change to the speech code at JMU, means they can speak freely and openly in class and around campus. The change led to recognition by the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, a national nonprofit organization based in Philadelphia, Pa. JMU’s free speech rating was updated to “green light” rating earlier this month, indicating the highest level of free speech. The change from a “yellow light” to a “green light” rating came about after recent changes to JMU’s speech code J-, which is held under J-, the Personal Abuse Code.

The organization began working with students on speech-code reform at JMU shortly after the College of William & Mary earned their green light rating in , according to an article on FIRE’s website about JMU’s change.

“Students need to follow community standards and continue to remain civil in classroom and campus interactions.”

Josh Bacon

Director of Judicial Affairs

Josh Bacon, director of Judicial Affairs, believes the code’s new wording makes it more clear that JMU values open communication and freedom of speech, as long as students are respectful of each others’ opinions.

“Students need to follow

What does the light system mean?

‘Green light’ schools, such as JMU, the College of William & Mary and the University of Virginia, do not necessarily support free speech, but FIRE has found no policies that impede students’ rights to express themselves.



‘Yellow light’ schools, such as Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee University and Hampton University, have policies that impede or regulate free speech to some degree.



‘Red light’ schools, such as the University of Richmond and George Mason University, have at least one policy that severely limits freedom of speech and can be applied in a broad sense, such as prohibiting “verbal abuse.”

community standards and continue to remain civil in classroom and campus interactions,” Bacon said in an email.

The code formerly read, “No student shall direct expressions that can be reasonably anticipated to provoke a violent reaction from an individual or group of individuals at anyone.”

The word “provoke” has been replaced with the word “incite.”

For students on campus, the effects of the change will be limited. Bacon said freedom of speech has not been an issue for JMU in the past, and ought not to be in the future.

The change was suggested by a student, according to Bacon.

In the email, Bacon said Judicial “had never charged a student with this violation based on provoking a

violent reaction.”

FIRE was founded in  by Alan Charles Kors and Harvey A. Silvergate after their book, “The Shadow

University: The Betrayal of Liberty on America’s Campuses,” was published.

FIRE is conducting eight different projects promoting student and faculty rights on campuses across the nation, such as the Free Speech on Campus Project and the Freedom of Association on Campus Project.

JMU is one of only  universities identified by FIRE as green light schools. Virginia leads the nation with three green light institutions: the College of William & Mary, the University of Virginia and JMU, according to the article on FIRE’s website.

Also according to the article, FIRE is working with Virginia Tech, which has a yellow light rating, and George Mason University, which has a red light rating.

George Mason University earned a

red light rating due to its harassment policy, which an article on FIRE’s website said could be abused for purposes of censorship.

Robert Roberts, political science professor, disagrees with FIRE highlighting JMU’s recent speech code change.

He said FIRE described the issue of schools stifling students as freedom of speech, which is protected under the First Amendment.

“The First Amendment is about protecting political speech,” Roberts said. “There’s nothing in the code change that deals with political speech. It is about the social interactions between students.”

Robert McArthur, a junior integrated science and technology major, had a few reservations about the change.

“It’s good for people to be able to discuss whatever they want to, but I hope people remain respectful to each other,” McArthur said.

Senior Christina DiMarino said she hasn’t run into any such situations.

DiMarino, an engineering major, said she has, “never really experienced any disrespect among students.”

But both she and McArthur agreed that students should be able to speak their minds and share new perspectives.

And according to FIRE’s mission statement, that’s exactly what it seeks to promote. Along with freedom of speech, FIRE supports “legal equality, due process, religious liberty and sanctity of conscience — the essential qualities of individual liberty and dignity.”

FOOTBALL

Rivals prepare for top-10 match-up

After close game against Liberty, football begins CAA play against the College of William & Mary Tribe

By David Halstead contributing writer

With an exhilarating 27-24 win over Liberty University in the rearview mirror, JMU switches focus to an all-too-familiar foe, the College of William & Mary Tribe.

The No. 10 Dukes (2-1) travel to Williamsburg this Saturday to take on the No. 5 Tribe (2-1) in the Colonial Athletic Association opener for both teams. Last season, JMU squared off with William & Mary in Harrisonburg on Senior Day and shocked the Tribe, ranked first in the nation at the time, with a 30-24 win.

Much has changed since that time, including redshirt sophomore quarterback Dae’Quan Scott’s position.

Last season, Scott carried the team with his successful debut in the wildcat formation, gaining 125 yards and three touchdowns against the Tribe.

Scott and the Dukes won the game without completing a single pass.

This season, with Scott converted to running back, the Dukes will need a standout performance from him and from redshirt junior quarterback Justin Thorpe.

“It’s a big game,” Thorpe said. “It’s a ranked game and we are really looking forward to this. The Liberty game is in the past, and we are just happy that we left there with a win against a good team.”

Thorpe has had his ups and downs this season, overcoming a two-interception performance against Central Connecticut State University to pass for 141 yards and zero turnovers in last week’s win over Liberty.

“I think Justin is getting better every week,” said head coach Mickey Matthews. “He is really knocking off the rust every week. The big thing is he is not making the same mistake

twice and he is learning.”

Matthews predicts a close game this Saturday, as is usual whenever the Dukes and the Tribe go head to head. He knows that JMU faces its stiffest competition so far this season in the Tribe.

“William & Mary was the consensus preseason choice to win the national championship, so it takes a lot to get ready to play these guys,” Matthews said.

“They run the same offense with both quarterbacks, and it is really not any different preparation for the two kids.”

Mickey Matthews head coach

The Dukes will continue to look toward the running game and for Scott to build on his three-touchdown performance against Liberty.

“When you have a good player like Dae’Quan, you want to give him the ball,” Matthews said. “We probably played him more against Liberty than we anticipated because the run game was working so well.”

Matthews, who has faced Tribe coach Jimmye Laycock countless times, said he’d be surprised if Laycock runs something he hasn’t seen before.

“They run the same plays, and Coach Laycock runs the same offense he has been running for 25 years down there,” Matthews said.

One challenge for JMU’s defense is that it doesn’t know who will be calling the shots for the opposing offense.

Senior quarterback Michael Paulus was 2 of 6 passing for 7 yards with an interception, leading Laycock to put in redshirt sophomore quarterback Michael Graham in the second half last weekend against Lock Haven University.

Graham provided enough of a spark to get the Tribe the win, but Laycock doesn’t know who he will start this Saturday.

But Matthews doesn’t think it will be too big of an issue.

“They run the same offense with both quarterbacks, and it is really not any different preparation for the two kids,” Matthews said.

A good sign for the Dukes is that redshirt junior linebacker Jamie Veney practiced on Tuesday after being ruled out of the Liberty game with a hamstring injury. Redshirt senior defensive tackle Nick Emmons, who suffered a knee injury earlier in the season, practiced on Tuesday, but Matthews said it’s unlikely that Emmons will play on Saturday.

Throughout the week, two Dukes picked up weekly CAA accolades. After his 40-yard game-winning field goal, redshirt sophomore kicker Cameron Starke was named the CAA Special Teams Player of the Week while Scott was named as CAA Offensive Player of the Week.

Starke was also tabbed as a College Sporting News Special Teams National All-Star.

Kickoff at Zable Stadium is set for 7 p.m. and will be televised as part of the CAA’s television package.

Zeroing in on the Tribe

Tribe juggles quarterbacks, will rely on star running back for win against JMU’s defense this Saturday

By Tony Schaffner contributing writer

JMU is headed to Williamsburg this Saturday to take on last year’s conference champion the College of William & Mary. The No. 12 Dukes (2-1) are playing in their first conference game against the No. 6 Tribe (2-1).

Last year, the Tribe finished the season at 8-4 with a loss to Georgia Southern University in the second round of Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.

In addition to winning the Colonial Athletic Association title last year, the Tribe tied a program record with 12 players earning 15 all-conference awards.

The Tribe are returning 13 starters from last year’s conference-winning team and have been predicted to once again finish first this year by the CAA head coaches in the preseason poll.

“Everyone says they’re better than us,” said JMU captain and starting center redshirt senior Roane Babington said. “So we have got to [go out and] do well.”

On offense this year, the Tribe will rely immensely on the heavily decorated running back senior Jonathan Grimes to carry their pro-style offense.

“They’re moving him around to wide receiver and throwing him the ball,” said JMU head coach Mickey Matthews. “He’s much like Dae’Quan [Scott].”

W&M has a quarterback carousel under center with sophomore quarterback Michael Graham starting the second half after the benching of senior quarterback Michael Paulus in the Tribe’s narrow 13-10 win over Division II Lock Haven University last week.

On top of that, the Tribe started three different quarterbacks last year and only had the same quarterback play an entire game seven times.

“We’ve got to block better, we’ve got to protect better, we’ve got to throw better and we’ve got to catch better,” said Tribe head coach Jimmye Laycock.

“Other than that we’re pretty good.”

Last year’s leading wide receiver for the Tribe, junior Ryan Moody, will miss a significant portion of this season with a knee injury from spring drills.

On defense, the Tribe runs a 4-3, which means four down lineman and three linebackers. This year the Tribe are only returning two starters with significant experience.

“They have a solid D-Line, but we should be able to move the ball against them,” said Dukes’ offensive guard Earl

Watford.

This season, the Tribe’s strongest defensive asset will be their linebacker corps : juniors Dante Cook and Jabrel Mines and senior Jake Trantin.

“They’re much more athletic on defense than in years past,” Matthews said.

In the defensive backfield, the Tribe is led by junior shutdown cornerback and first team all-conference cornerback B.W. Webb. In addition, the Tribe are returning three of four starters from last year.

“In this league you’ve got to have swag,” senior defensive end D.J. Bryant said. “But at the same time you don’t want to get a big head because that’s when you can get beat by anybody.”

“

‘Losing that lovin’ feeling’ for ‘Top Gun’

”

Porn has grown more popular and more explicit, professor of journalism says

Robert Jensen knows that sex sells. He’s just concerned about what kind of sex is selling.

Jensen, a professor of journalism at the University of Texas, focused his lecture on Monday on the pornography industry. His lecture critically outlined the prevalence of aggressive pornography in the industry.

But don’t get your hopes up.

“There will be not be any actual pornography shown,” he said.

A few dozen students and faculty in Harrison Hall breathed a sigh of relief; a few chuckled.

“He was critical of the way porn is demeaning to women,” said Katie O’Connell, a senior international affairs major. “Which isn’t an argument you usually see in more conservative critiques.”

Jensen admitted the topic would be hard to present and difficult to discuss.

“Porn is where all of the niceties of a patriarchal, white supremacist and capitalist society are stripped away,” Jensen said. “What you see is the ugly reality behind it.”

Despite this, the audience was grateful for the discussion.

“Dr. Jensen was incredibly knowledgeable on the subject and approached it with great care and sensitivity,” said Mitchell Hobza, a fifth-year English major with a minor in women’s studies. “Particularly in regards to an audience on a college campus.”

Jensen described the porn industry like any other business model in a capitalist society: New ideas sell, while old ideas become stale.

This drive for new ideas and markets — as well as the rejection of stale ideas — translates to more graphic, hardcore and exploitative forms of pornography.

Much of the pornography on the market has

done away with traditional forms of sex, focusing rather on exploitative, humiliating and dehumanizing acts toward women, Jensen said.

“Pornography is not just sex on film,” Jensen said, “but sex presented in the context of domination and subordination.”

Jensen revealed that the porn industry also embraces negative racial stereotypes.

“Those crude, racist stereotypes are all over pornography and always have been,” Jensen said.

These racial stereotypes include the animalistic portrayal of black women, Latina women as being innately sultry and the subservient Asian, based on the geisha.

“Remember that this material we’re talking about, these scenes, those are not simulated activities on film, these are real things done to real women in the world,” Jensen said. “Pornography matters because these films are being made and people are being hurt.”

Jensen also dicussed porn involving disabled participants, a genre that is specifically focused on the inequality and domination.

“What pornography does is sexualize every condition of inequality imaginable,” Jensen said.

However, some audience members had counter arguments.

The women in pornography are not put there against their will, but there are social factors, like childhood sexual abuse, that lead them into it, according to Mary Thompson, associate professor in the English department and co-coordinator of the women’s and gender studies program.

“We can safely assume it’s an act of free will — pressures, norms and limited options might motivate women’s participation in the porn

Turnout for LGBT panel nearly doubles

By Heather Butterwoth contributing writer

Kylar Engelmann was born a woman. Now the senior biology major identifies himself as a man.

Engelmann spoke on Monday as a panelist for “LGBT: Out on Campus.”

“It’s something that just can’t be changed. Trying to be a straight girl didn’t work out at all,” Engelmann told the audience of about 200 in the Grafton-Stovall Theatre. This year, there were about 100 more students than previous years, according to Beau Dooley, associate director of Student Wellness and Outreach. According to Dooley, these numbers are part of a trend of increased involvement and acceptance of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered issues and events on campus.

The panelists stressed acceptance and equality throughout the program, sponsored by the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender and Ally Education Program and Student Wellness and Outreach.

The audience’s anonymous questions for the panel ranged from terminology clarification to advice for coming out to suitemates. The panelists agreed that coming out should be an individual’s choice and that situations vary.

“We hope that those in attendance will gain a better understanding of LGBT student experiences at JMU — including both positive and challenging aspects,” Dooley said.

Panelist Jennifer Longo identified herself as pansexual. She explained that pansexual individuals can potentially be attracted to people of all gender identities and biological sexes.

Longo, a junior health sciences major, said one major challenge for her is that people assume she’s promiscuous.

“I’m not that kind of girl,” Longo said.

Several of the panelists said the majority of questions they get on a daily basis relate to sex. Longo clarified that being LGBT is similar to being heterosexual — relationships are not always only about sex.

Engelmann said another issue he faces is when people yell offensive words or have difficulty accepting his sexuality.

The panelists shared stories of awkward moments in dorm rooms, disappointed parents and unaccepting friends. But the event stayed positive, with scattered bursts of

applause and occasional laughter.

One audience member asked if Engelmann was single. His “yes” prompted a catcall.

“I was trying not to turn red,” Engelmann said after the event, chuckling.

There has been an increase in interest and attendance at LGBT events recently, according to Dooley.

“JMU students are moving in positive directions,” Dooley said.

Emily Picard, a senior psychology major, didn’t go to the panel, but said she is “interested in hearing what the LGBT students have to say.”

LGBT students are saying that this tolerance is being seen throughout campus.

“The JMU community has been really accepting as a whole,” said JoAnna Raucci, a lesbian panelist. Raucci, a senior psychology major, said she welcomes the acceptance because she “couldn’t live with hiding.”

Engelmann agreed, saying he’s “blessed to have such a support system” on the JMU campus among students and staff.

“JMU students are moving in positive directions.”

Beau Dooley

Associate director of Student Wellness and Outreach

Panelists informed the audience about LGBT resources and campus organizations such as Madison Equality. Some of the panelists, as members of LGBT organizations, have office hours and are available for students seeking advice or just wanting to talk.

Bethany Boveri, a junior nursing major who came to the panel, said she enojoyed learning about the different personalities of the panelists.

“I liked hearing about the students’ stories and struggles,” Boveri said.

Courtney Latimer, a junior interdisciplinary liberal studies major, agreed and said she wasn’t uncomfortable at the event.

“I have a lot of respect for the panelists,”Latimer said.

The LGBT and Ally Education Program will be hosting Celebrate Bisexuality Day, an international event, on Friday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the Warren Hall patio.

industry,” said Thompson.

Jensen also said that because porn is becoming increasingly mainstream, and our culture itself is becoming more pornographic, those values prevalent in porn continually seep into popular culture.

But to Hobza, Jensen’s views were too generalized.

“I just wish he spent more time talking about women’s agency because I think that the issues of sex work and pornography are much more nebulous than we want to acknowledge sometimes,” Hobza said.

Jensen spoke as part of the Visiting Scholars program. The next scholar to speak will be Mark Potock with his presentation, “The State of Hate in America: The Radical Right Since 9/11” on Sept. 27 at 7 p.m. in Miller Hall. contact Neal Hollowell at hollownr@dukes.jmu.edu.

Album Review

Thrice’s style thrives

Courtesy of Vagrant records

Alternative band Thrice shows their instrumental tricks for “Major/Minor.”

By Beth Cole The Breeze

With every album, Thrice has managed to defy any previous definition of their style of music. It’s hard to know quite what to expect from the band.

From their earlier post-hardcore releases to 2009 release, “Beggars,” which had obvious influences from lead singer Dustin Kensrue’s solo folk project, Thrice has certainly evolved as a band.

Thrice

Major/Minor  Released Sept. 20

With their latest release, “Major/ Minor,” which dropped Tuesday, Thrice seems to have taken all of their attempts at different styles and tossed them in a blender to create a blast of powerfully emotional songs.

The best word to describe “Major/Minor” is heavy. Each element of the album holds its own weight. The drums are intense; Kensrue’s voice is raspy and soulful as usual; the guitars screech and roar; and the bass firmly holds it all together.

The album opens with “Yellow Belly,” an apparent slap in the face to abusers with lyrics like, “Your hands were made to comfort, though they only conjure fear.”

Kensrue’s vocals almost clash with the distorted guitars and powerful yet simple beat, but it all comes

together for a gritty sound.

“Blur” abruptly hits eardrums like a punch in the gut after the more melodic “Treading Paper,” with drums and guitar together forming a steady beat. But in true Thrice style, it’s hard to keep up with tempo changes. It’s very much a throwback to their 2005 release, “Vheissu.”

Thrice has gotten a reputation for an obvious Christian undertone in their lyrics. “Major/Minor” isn’t quite as in-your-face about the references as, say, “Beggars,” which quoted well-known Bible passages.

But Thrice holds true to its message with songs like “Cataracts,” “Blinded” and “Listen Through Me.” The raw emotion in the album, heard in “Words in the Water,” can be traced to the band’s losses since its last album. Guitarist Teppei Teranishi dedicates the album to his mother, who died from cancer, while brothers bassist Ed and drummer Riley Breckenridge dedicate the album to their father, who also died. Kensrue’s dad is fighting brain cancer.

The band displays thier pain with songs like “Anthology”: “Our life’s built of tin cans and string. But the cornerstone laid is a beautiful and wondrous thing.”

“Major/ Minor” blends all of Thrice’s best details into one style that definitely shows off the members’ talents.

I get it now. I get the Goose and Maverick references. I now know where “I feel the need. The need for speed” comes from. And I can definitely understand why “Top Gun” is considered a classic by so many.

It chronicles the adventures of Maverick and Goose, two best friends and co-pilots in Top Gun, the most elite flight school in the country. Maverick is desperate to win the top-pilot status and the heart of a blonde woman who plays no real factor in the story’s progression (Isn’t that always the case?).

Though not a film I’d put on my favorites list, “Top Gun” has all the necessary components of a quotable classic. The characters have memorable names, there are some great one-liners, the action sequences aren’t cheesy and there are topless men playing volleyball.

But when you stop to delve into the inner workings of the movie, you have to pause for a minute and critically analyze the film’s main character, Maverick. Played by a young, more attractive, less disturbing Tom Cruise, Maverick is a cocky, overconfident jerk who puts his friends last, despite promising them otherwise.

Top Gun 

‘PG’ 109 min.

Starring Tom Cruise, Kelly McGillis, Val Kilmer Rotten Tomatoes score 50%

Yet, too many people trust him, seeing the good in his obviously flawed ways. What happened to the hard-a** American military system we’ve come to know and love? Wouldn’t an overconfident mischief-maker be kicked out of the program faster than Oprah kicked Cruise off her couch?

It seemed very odd that lovable characters like Goose, who had a family to consider, would trust Maverick with their lives. Come on, Goose — when you have a scene playing the piano with your precious baby son, you know things won’t turn out so hot for you.

Sure, Mav seemingly has a good head on his shoulders, and his heart is in the right place, but if I were sitting in the co-pilot’s seat, I don’t think I’d care too much about his good intentions. And while Goose’s fate wasn’t Mav’s fault, it could’ve been in several other times. If I were in charge of the top flight school in the country, I wouldn’t waste my time training such a hothead. . And though they try to portray Iceman as being a boring square with a stupid hairstyle, his desire to follow the rules and do things according to a reasonable protocol should be commended rather than mocked, as the film seems to do.

But that doesn’t seem to matter, so long as Cruise learns a valuable lesson in the end. This seems to be a theme in his movies. Who cares if the alien invasion destroyed half the planet in “War of the Worlds”? At least Tom Cruise got to be a better father.

As Jack Nicholson says to Cruise in a far superior film, “You want me on that wall. You need me on that wall.”

Well, I sure wouldn’t want Maverick on any wall that’s supposed to be protecting me.

Favorite quote: “Maverick, you just did an incredibly brave thing.

What you should have done was land your plane! You don’t own that plane, the tax payers do!
